1 As Jesus left the Temple and was walking away, his followers came up to show him the Temple’s buildings.
2 Jesus asked, “Do you see all these buildings? I tell you the truth, not one stone will be left on another. Every stone will be thrown down to the ground.”
3 Later, as Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, his followers came to be alone with him. They said, “Tell us, when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that it is time for you to come again and for this age to end?”
4 Jesus answered, “Be careful that no one fools you.
5 Many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will fool many people.
6 You will hear about wars and stories of wars that are coming, but don’t be afraid. These things must happen before the end comes.
7 Nations will fight against other nations; kingdoms will fight against other kingdoms. There will be times when there is no food for people to eat, and there will be earthquakes in different places.
